This is why they don't want to educate the Negro

[woodwork201]

I just watched History Channel's season 1, episode 1, of Lincoln, after having binge watched Grant all day.

I was particularly caught up by this statement in the show's commentary from Christy Coleman, a black historian and expert in Civil War history and Executive Director of the Jamestown-Yorktown Foundation talking about Frederick Douglas:

"And the more he reads, it is a fire in his belly. This is why they don't want to educate the negro, because when we become aware, when we understand, we can no longer be enslaved."​

That is so powerful and describes the Democrats today as it did in Frederick Douglas' youth to which Coleman was referring when she made that remark. They must have schools that do not educate so they can tell black people they're working for their good when, in reality, they're only working to keep them enslaved.

Stonewall Jackson and his wife ran a school for black children.

I had a ancestor who ran a general store and grist mill that had a slave. He had to get permission from both the county and Richmond to have him taught to read and do sums to help him run the business.

You think democrats in 2022 don't want to rile up their base with that shit?

That's like the center for their platform. Pissing off black women so they vote

The only problem is if one black moves into your neighborhoods you all move away and drop the property values. Black people have evidence of unfair housing practices. Blablabla. But you know all that.

Its unfair when people move? Lol

Are "blockbusting" techniques still used to obtain home ownership for blacks?

The Democrats don't have to worry about the Negroes being educated now. They make sure the education system produces illiterate graduates. An illiterate Negro on welfare is a guaranteed Democrat voter.

On the show, they said that Frederic Douglas was sent to, I think, the country home where his owner's wife was. She wasn't aware that it was illegal to teach black children to read and write so she just did it and Frederick Douglas is what came out of that teaching. Education is a very powerful thing and that's why so many black leaders, and white leaders of blacks, want to make sure that the black community as a whole never learns to read and write.

Or the whites can make life so miserable for them that they move out.

Why would I care if a black family moved into my neighborhood?
The way I look at it is if he can afford a house where I live he's gotta be a pretty stable person.

The history of people of African ancestry in this country is a very sad chapter.

Abraham Lincoln before he became President calmly opined that Caucasians and African Americans were simply incompatible.

He suggested that the latter group consider moving to the islands in the Caribbean.

He did not say it in a malicious manner. And for all I know, he may have changed his mind when he became President.

In my opinion, some people today agree with his point of view.

There are, of course, many wonderful African Americans, as many Americans can tell you.

And there are some very evil Caucasians, Asians, and Hispanics.

Yet an unusually large percentage of African American youths are, well, really dangerous and seem to lack a conscience. They will literally kill you with no remorse. (And here in Los Angeles, that same attitude infects a lot of people of another ethnicity, too.)

Personally, I feel that the situation will never really improve.

Others are more optimistic. They are sure that African American youth will change their attitudes once Caucasians become a small minority of the American population.

I hope that they are right.

Imo, the only way black and white will get along is if they intermarry, resulting in a new racial identity that both share.

It is the white Prog who moves away first and then recurring that is the real truth. We see the white progs every day on TV plying their bullshit. None of them will suffer.

How come liberal socialist Canada doesn't have a problem with black people? Maybe instead of Democrats running large cities we should have socialists take over.

I mean, you're pointing to large cities in America that are run by Progs suggesting we aren't doing a good job. Who is? Canada. A socialist country. Maybe this is an argument for why we should go socialism?

That has to happen? How about us white people just start hiring black people for good paying jobs so they can raise their families and not have to resort to crime? We don't have to interbreed with them to wipe out the black/white race just to create a new race. After that we'll just start hating asians or mexicans. Then we'll have to mix with them too?

Remember, most of these issues are only issues that are happening in large poor cities with high crime. They aren't happening in my neighborhood. The blacks I live around don't break the law. Our cars and homes aren't being broken into. Cops aren't killing blacks in my community.

But black will tell you they are profiled in my community. And the black football coach will say he was fired for racist reasons. I'm not going to tell them they are always crying wolf.

Do you understand the concept of and problem with white flight?

So he knew his goesinto's?

IDK what's that? I do know blacks claim that still to this day we have unfair housing practices that discriminate. They'd have to explain it to me.

One thing that keeps black people out of our communities is the taxes and association dues. And you MUST cut your lawn and keep your place looking nice. Eventually black people leave because it's too expensive to maintain.
